The Siemens 6SL3210-5BB12-5UV1 is a SINAMICS V20 basic inverter rated 0.25 kW (0.25 hp) at 1.7 A output current for low overload, supplied from 1 AC 200 … 240 V.
Siemens lists it as frame size FSAA with USS, Modbus RTU on the RS485 terminals; it is unfiltered and has no braking chopper built in.
The V20 is the entry-level Siemens drive for simple speed control: pumps, fans, compressors, conveyors and mixers. It has a built-in operator panel and is set up quickly with connection macros and application macros.
Overload capability per the Siemens data sheet: high overload (HO): 150 % rated output current for 60 s, cycle time 300 s.
Other sizes: SINAMICS V20 inverters.

Typical applications
- Water pumps, booster sets and irrigation
- Belt conveyors and roller tables
- Replacement of a failed V20 of the same rating
Compatibility and replacement
This version needs a single-phase 200-240 V supply. Compare the power and current with the motor plate: the drive output current must be at least the motor rated current. Frame size FSAA has the mounting dimensions listed above, so a same-size V20 fits the existing holes. Siemens also offers filtered versions and other supplies; if the old label shows a different order number, send it and we confirm the exact match.
What to check first
- Note the motor rating plate data (kW, A, V, Hz, rpm), because they are entered again during commissioning.
- Check the supply voltage, input fuses and motor cable for faults before installing the new drive, so it does not fail for the same reason.
Frequently asked questions
How long can the motor cable be?
Per Siemens: 25 m (82.02 ft) shielded or 50 m (164.04 ft) unshielded.
LO or HO: which rating applies?
Siemens gives the same rating for low and high overload on this model (0.25 kW, 1.7 A), so it can be used for pumps and fans as well as for machines with heavy starting torque.
